THE  FLOWERS  COLLECTION 


rilF/  Compiler  of  the  following  Songs  aue 
Hymns  has  been  induced  to  have  a  second  edi- 
tion of  his  Songs  and  Hymns  publislied,  for  se- 
veral reasorjs,  viz. — First,  because  of  the  many 
applications  made  to  him,  and  to  the  book-sel- 
lers in  the  City  of  Raleigh,  for  theju.  Second- 
ly, because  of  the  deficiency  the  author  has  dis.- 
covered  among  the  congregations  he  h^s  had  the 
honor  to  attend  for  several  yeai's  in  Wake  Coun,- 
ty,  and  at  the  Associations  in  this  State,  of  the 
brethren  ant!  friends  not  having  song-books  alike; 
and  therefore,  of; en  perplexed  and  confused 
wl.ile  singing,  which  makes  it  painful  to  the 
heitrers,  and  un«  difying  to  themselves.  Third- 
ly, because  he  has  reason  to  believe  that  many 
of  the  Songs  in  this  selection  have  been  blessed 
to  the  comforting  of  mourning  souU,  in  the  for- 
mer a'ld  latter  revivals  of  Religion,  and  have 
edified  the  hearts  of  many  christians.  Fourthly, 
because  he  is  desirous  to  promote  and  encourage 
the  singing  of  Spii'itual  Song-,  more  and  more, 
among  his  brethren  and  sisters  in  this  State  ^ 
and  therefore,  he  has  carefu'ly  revised  arid  cor- 
rected his  hvs*  edition  of  Songs  and  Hymns,  and 
has  coMciuded  to  have  nearly  all  the  <ame  Songs 
J  Hyvnns  put  in  this  second  edition  that  were 
hi  the  first,  with  the  addition  of  a  few  choice 

-  that  were  "^^^^^^^'^  ^^^^^  ^^^^^  "^^^

■Vist,  mav/sing;  in  acconi.incc  with  those  who 

IV  obfain  the  seeond  ciliiion. 

The  author  inlbrms  his  friends,  that  f.hose  who 
mny  become  the  purchasers  of  <his  edition,  will 
Tind  tl^eiTii^elves  in  posscf^sion  of  ab^ut  two  hun- 
dred and  twenty-four  choice  Sons^s^  adapted  to 
the  Church  of  Christ,  in  all  hf'r  various  ^itu^i-

about  sixtj-four  choice  Hynins^,  adapted  to  pub- 
lic and  private  worship  ;  and,  a  short  form 
of  matrimony,  for  the  accommodation  of  Minis- 
ters and  Magistrates.  The  reason  why  he  hn- 
Dot  put  in  more  Tlymng  is,  because  he  think 
Ihat  Watts -s  Psalms  and  Hymns  arc  suflicieo., 
witJ^out  adding  to,  or  dimjni«;hing  from  them  ;

Tho'  flesh  should  be  backward  and  duty  sq^rin 

hard,  ''^ 
Be  bold,  and  conras^eous,  to  follow  your  Lord; 
Tlte  way  he  has  shewn  you,  will  prove  to  be 
best; 

He'll  lead  you  to  conquest, &  bring  you  to  rest. 

^  Behold  him  descending  a  Priest  to  atone ;

He  sends  forth  his  Spli  it  &  conquers  by  love; 
Tliro*  conSicts,  to  conquest  he'll  lead  you  a-

Then  let  us  rejoice  in  his  name  here  below.

A  lasting  commission  unto  them  he  gave  : 
**  Go  teach  all  the  nations,  and  those  that  be- 
lieve, 

Obedient  should  prove  and  baptism  receive;

'  Observe  my  commandments,  and  come  after

Apostles  attended  to  vvljat  he  had  done  ; 
They  preach'd  and  baptised  the  way  he  had 
shewn  ; 

They  ptibiish'd  the  gospel,  and  w  licn  'twas 
I     .  received. 
They  buried  in  baptism  all  that  hcliev'd. 
Has  Jesus  the  Saviour  done  great  things  for 
you  ? 

Then  take  up  your  crosses  and  follow  him  too. 

L  0  Christians,  your  Jesus  w  ill  shortly  appear, 
To  meet  all  his  soldiers  who  love  him  sincere; 
Then  let  us  be  marcliing  to  meet  him  my 
friends. 

Behold,  into  Jortlan  the  Saviour  descends  ! 
And  as  he  arose  from  the  wafery  tomb. 
The  Father  approv'd  of  w  hat  Jesus  had  done ! 

5,  If  friends  should  oppose  you  and  try  to  retard. 
Be  steadfastly  looking  to  Jesus  your  Lord  ; 
If  troubles  and  trials, and  crosses  you  bear, 
The  more  you'll  attend  to  the  duty  of  prayeri 
And  wlien  you  this  world  of  all  sorrow  shall

77.  Scriptural  Baptism.  L.  M. 

1.  WHEN  Christ  was  risen  from  the  dead 
He  thus  to  his  disciple.s  said  : 

Go  teach  the  nations  and  baptise  5"  i 
Then  he  ascends  above  the  skies. 

2.  According  to  this  plain  command,  i 
Teaching  doth  first  in  order  stand  ; 

By  which  the  Lord  makes  known  his  gr 
And  then  baptism  doth  take  place. 

3.  Th'  Apostles  nnderstood  their  Lord,

By  giace  a  change  in  tl  em  was  wrong!

And  praise  the  Lord  with  heart  and  vc 

14.  AVhen  Paul  and  Silas  were  set  free, 
From  prison  they  did  come  to  see  ' 
Their  brethren  whom  they  found  alive^ 
In  Lydia's  house  comforts  revive. 

15.  One  Crispus,  with  his  house,  believMj 
And  the  Corinlhians  truth  received  ^  < 
They  tlien  were  all  bap<ized  too, 
And  so  believers  ought  to  do.
